AMPLIFIED 2015 | Acts 2:38 And Peter said to them, "Repent [change your old way of thinking, turn from your sinful ways, accept and follow Jesus as the Messiah] and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ because of the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. |
Bible Question: Were you aware the founder of the International Church of Christ, Alexander Campbell, NEVER received "baptism for the forgiveness of sins" ... as well as his father, Thomas Campbell. |
Bible Answer: He was the founder of the/a (traditional) church of christ. Kip McKean founded the ICOC. Yes, I have read that. Not sure what that has to do with me though. I do not look up to Campbell or McKean or say Martin Luther for example as some great historical theologian. I do agree with "some" of their ideas on doctrine, etc. |
